Bar POS software
Bar POS software that handles liquor VAT and GST together
Bars and restaurant-bars bill food under GST and liquor under state VAT, often on the same table. NextGenDash handles both on one bill, so you do not need a separate system for the bar.
Track every peg and bottle in bar stock, see which drinks sell at which hour, and keep table billing moving on a busy night.
Liquor VAT and food GST
Put drinks on a VAT tax class and food on GST; each shows separately on the bill.
Table billing and KOT
Run tabs by table, send food orders to the kitchen and settle everything on one bill.
Bar stock tracking
Sales reduce bar stock automatically, and purchases add it back.
Night-time sales view
See sales by hour to plan staff and stock for your busiest nights.
Works offline
Keep billing even if the internet drops; bills sync when it returns.
Why bars need tax classes
Alcohol is outside GST in India and is taxed by the state, so a restaurant-bar has two tax systems on one menu. Getting this wrong on bills causes problems at filing time. With tax classes set once per item, NextGenDash applies the right tax automatically and keeps both in your tax summary. Confirm your state's rates with your accountant.
